pattern matching using only character arrays (KMP algorithm)

[Johnp585]

I am stuck i keep on going around in circles over this... I am trying to write a program that takes two arguments. They are both strings. I need to implement the KMP algorithm or something similar using only character arrays to see if the first string is within the second string. If anybody can help or give me some pointers it would be greatly appreciated.
-thanks

Am I correct in saying that you want to write the substring method?
